ZAGREB, 31 May 2022 - His Majesty The King's Guard (Hans Majestet Kongens Garde, or HMKG)  is arriving in Croatia for the first time to visit Zagreb and Split where it will conduct exercises and a march, the Norwegian Embassy said on Tuesday.

During the tour of Croatia, the guard's 130-member orchestra and soldiers will perform ceremonial routines, including concerts and drill exercises, the embassy said.

Their first performance will be on Friday, 3 June, on Split's Riva promenade.

They will conduct two performances in Zagreb on 4 June, first in the downtown Ban Jelačić Square together with the Croatian Army and then a march around the inner city centre.

In the evening they will conduct a march in Maksimir Park and conduct another performance.

All the performances are free of charge.

This event is the result of continued and successful cooperation between the Croatian and Norwegian armies within the NATO alliance.
